Ignoring History




Ignoring History

Visualizing flight
Attempting to join the gulls
The freedom to fly
Remembering when
She once could

Ignoring history
Was easier
Before freedom
Was understood


Ignoring History

    1. Achieving flight is a little more difficult to achieve. Some times though history can be ignored. We can still float in the breeze.

  2. I should add that every morning visiting you I feel some of that old magic I always had before I lost everything and myself too, thank you for that

    1. We start with nothing. We end with nothing. We need to make the most of what can be lived in between.
      Thank you

  3. Oh to fly with the gulls...my lifelong dream!!
    In remembering a past existence as a gull, she has found an ecstasy that is apparent in this pose.
    How I wish this were me...

    You are absolutely right Anthony...we do need to make the most of what we have:)

    1. A dream I still fulfill flying with the gulls sometimes by dreaming still, though not as easily.
      These days, dreaming is enough..
      Thank you
